Operational Update Following Hurricane Michael
DOTHAN, AL, October 16, 2018 – Construction Partners, Inc. (NASDAQ: ROAD) (“CPI” or the “Company”), a vertically integrated civil infrastructure company specializing in the construction and maintenance of roadways across five southeastern states, today provided an initial update following the landfall of Hurricane Michael and its impact on the Company’s operations.
Charles E. Owens, CPI’s President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone affected by Hurricane Michael. The storm has had a significant impact on the Florida Panhandle and many surrounding areas. The safety of our employees is our top priority, and we continue to support them and the communities in which we all live and work as recovery from the storm continues. We did not sustain any significant damage at our facilities in Florida or in any of our other markets.”
CPI is currently engaged in a number of projects to support the recovery efforts for local roadways in our storm-affected markets. The Company has resumed operations across all of our markets, following delays last week due to the storm and related power outages in certain areas. While damage assessment and timing are uncertain at this point, new project work will be necessary in certain local markets impacted by the storm. CPI will monitor closely any future storm-related repair project opportunities.
